3/6/12: Biking and Walking and Uh-Oh Moments

This afternoon Tyler and John completed 1008 miles of biking when they rode 64.02 miles from Carlsbad, New Mexico to the Texas border! John and Kipp have walked 164 miles. Kipp has a sprained right ankle and will not be able to walk with John until it is fully healed. Fortunately, we have noticed significant progress since he hurt himself yesterday morning chasing ducks. On the bike ride today John scraped his right leg on a bridge railing. Fortunately, he didn’t fall, and the injury is a minor one.

Here is a photo of Kipp and John – Kipp with his sprained right ankle and John with his scraped right leg. Both are healing! The photo was taken after today’s bike ride:
